COLOR CODEDM120 (2011) - BlackRV-Other Touch-Up Paint

The Look

You likely see this color as the grounding force on your Thor coach. Between 2006 and 2013, this shade served as the anchor for those sweeping, multi-tone graphics that defined the era of full-body paint. It gives your rig a level of weight and luxury that standard white fiberglass just cannot match. Since your vehicle has spent years facing highway debris and constant sun, the finish might look a little thirsty. Restoring this depth is the best way to take years off the age of your motorhome.

Technical Details

This finish is a Black Mist Metallic, which means it carries a fine flake designed to catch the light. While a solid black acts like a mirror and shows every tiny swirl mark, the metallic bits in this formula help hide minor surface imperfections. However, these flakes are heavy. If they do not distribute evenly during your repair, the patch can look darker or blotchier than the rest of the panel. This mottling happens when the paint stays wet for too long or goes on too thick, so you must be mindful of your layering.

Best Practices

Thor usually hides your paint information on a data sticker inside the wardrobe closet or on the wall behind the driver's seat. Before you spray or dab RV-Other Black (check for code DM120 (2011)), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to get those metallic flakes off the bottom. Work in a cool shade and never on a surface that feels hot to the touch. Test the color on the included card to confirm the match against your specific coach. When applying, keep the container moving to ensure the flakes lay down flat and uniform. Give the repair plenty of drying time between light coats to prevent the paint from sagging or trapping moisture.
